[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 1676070, member: 93138"] I wouldn't. Carbon fibre is known for being difficult to fully saturate with resin. We ran into that in building the envelope for my college's Human Powered Vehicle. Most real carbon fibre parts are made from "pre-preg" and are cured in an autoclave. Kevlar isn't much better, but it is enough better that it can be used where carbon fibre can't. If I recall right, CF is good for stiffness while Kevlar is better for strength. [/QUOTE]
